Answer:
1. A ruler is a common instrument used for measuring the length of small objects
2. The acceleration due to gravity at the surface of Earth is about 9.8 metres per second per second.
<span>An imaginary line perpendicular to a reflecting surface is called "a normal" (principle line)
So, Your Answer would be Option B

Answer:
E.) conservation of angular momentum
Explanation:
The angular momentum is defined as:
x 
where
is the radius of the star,
is the mass and
the angular velocity.
and angular momentum is an amount that is conserved, so the angular momentum before the star is compressed must be equal to the angular momentum after the star was compressed:
x
x 
the second radius is smaller than the first radius, since the star shrinked, the second angular velocity must be greater that the first.
In other words, the angular velicity increases as the star shrinks because of the conservation of angular momentum.
Gravitational potential energy can be given by the equation
PE = mgh
where m is the mass,
g is the gravitational constant 9.81 or 10 depending on rounding
and h is the height
well weight is a force equiavlent to
W= m*g
so comparing that to the potential energy equation, divide the potential energy by the height and you will get weight in Newtons
Answer:
C. More of the heat is transferred to the kinetic energy of the copper atoms than to the kinetic energy of the water molecules.
Explanation:
Both equal masses of water and copper were heated at the same temperature. Since copper is a good conductor of heat compared to water, its absorbs more heat. Which in-turn increases the rate of vibrations of the atoms in the copper mass, thus increasing their kinetic energy.
In the case of water, its molecules displaces one another after being heated to a higher temperature compared to neighboring molecules. So that the heated molecule becomes less dense and floats to the surface of water.
This property of copper makes it to be heated to a higher final temperature than the water.
